Pefferlaw River

 Fence and bridge over Pefferlaw River

Pefferlaw is a community a few miles north of East Gwillimbury. Last weekend - although the weather had been cold - the rushing water had kept ice from forming over the top of the river.

Another view of the bridge

It may be totally covered in ice today, though, because the Arctic sent us some extremely cold air yesterday. Brrr.

I am linking to Good Fences HERE.

  1. I guess you will have to go back for some ice photos of the same scene. It will probably look very cool and cold.

  6. No ice or snow here but the chill is here today although we have bright blue skies. Your shots are great with the snow on them and I love that bridge.

  8. You can almost hear the water rushing by. I wonder who lives in that house.

  9. I had to go out and check a gate at 6 a.m. today (before daylight) and the 21 degrees outside made me feel like I might be in Ontario!

  11. Very pretty shots. I've seen the place name on the map and on direction signs, but I've never been there.

  12. Well done on braving the weather for these gorgeous shots EG, I do love an arched bridge. Bet it will look magical iced over.

  13. The perspective and composition of your photos is just outstanding! I absolutely love the old boxcar (yesterday) and the first bridge photo today. Great work! John

  14. It's a beautiful bridge and looks like a beautiful community. I'm trying to picture it in the summertime! Kind of a strange name, though!

    You're hearing Jingle Bells? Does this happen all the time or only at certain times of the year? :)

  15. The second photo is my favorite. What a beautiful bridge and great composition! Makes me not even mind the snow (for a while).

  23. I love the name of the river. Beautiful shots and our temperatures are also taking a dip this week.

  24. It is very cold here today, but nothing compared to where you are. I would freeze there.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Neat old bridge. Stay warm up there.

  26. Nice bridge! I'm always partial to arch bridges.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Beautiful pictures . . .
    I liked seeing sun glimpses along with the fence and bridge railings . . .
    A treat for me when all I am seeing is WHITE these days!

    ReplyDelete
  28. What gorgeous places to drive to!

  30. We probably won't get any snow this year!

    ReplyDelete
  31. I love the name and what great captures for the day!! Beautiful river and it does look cold!! Hope you have a great weekend! Stay warm!!

  32. Nice solidly built bridge over that cold, cold stream ... and the fence is very interesting as well as functional. I wish my country would get busy and fix or rebuild our bridges ... I sure wouldn't want to fall into that cold water :) Nice post EGCG ...

  35. What a pretty place!! I would also love to see a picture of it in the spring, maybe in each season.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Lovely shots. And that bridge is very lovely too.

    ReplyDelete
  37. We were thinking alike here today with our bridge/fences. - I really like that 2nd photo.

    ReplyDelete
  38. I was wondering about that last night, if our local creek would freeze with the windchill being minus 30.

    These are lovely images of the bridge and landscape.

    Thanks for stopping by to comment on my fences. I hope the new year is starting out well for you!

  39. What a tranquil, beautiful winter scene.

  40. i like the angle it was photographed in on image 1.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Pretty little bridge style. And love the touch of enigmatic blues in the water beneath.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Love this! You just have to wonder where the water will take you!
    Stay warm!

  43. Seems like it's cold all over the north. We live in the northeast USA and they say that the high for the day will be 7 degrees F. which according to the calculator I've seen on line is -13 or so C. Brrrrr! We are currently in Florida where people are complaining about the cold. It's about 4 degrees C. Seems pretty balmy to me. That's a beautiful bridge scene!

  44. The second photo is gorgeous, so wintry. I really like the curves in it.

    ReplyDelete
  45. I love the curves in the second photo and the wintry feel of both.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Both the river and the bridge are lovely. Many of our more modern bridges aren't as graceful.
    It looks as if the river's giving it a good try to freeze at the edges. That cold blast may indeed finish it off. Stay warm!

  47. i can relate to the cold weather you're having as it was 0 degrees here this morning and was only supposed to be a high of 7. personally i can't wait for warmer weather... love your photos. have a great night~

    ReplyDelete
  48. I love the graceful arc of the bridge. I don't do cold too well.

    ReplyDelete
  49. Wasn't it cold???
    We had -25 overnight.
    I love your photos. I remember being to Pefferlaw. I just like the name.
    Keep warm!

    ReplyDelete
  50. It is a nice little bridge. To my eye, the second photo is the better one. Stay warm, EG.

    ReplyDelete
  51. Hi Tina,
    Very beautiful winter scenes, but I know it is cold as heck. The same arctic is hanging out in our neck of the woods too, I reckon; for, we are in the teens overnight and the high today was 30 deg. F.

    Stay warm!

    Peace :)

  52. I always like bridges so it's good to see one where care has been taken to make concrete more interesting. The road bridge in the town near where I live was buit originally in the 1410.

  53. These are absolutely beautiful!

  54. Lovely captures, started loving snow more now after experiencing it in Greece. :)
